"One of the most varied books of the Bible, Numbers exhibits an intense interest in the rules and regulations governing the activities of the priests and Levites, while narrative accounts of Israel's journeyings in the wilderness are juxtaposed in a seemingly random fashion. Nevertheless, in this scholarly new commentary Eryl Davies clearly shows the overarching structure of Numbers by focusing on three dominant themes: the theology of the land, the significance of the role of priest, and the holiness and purity of the emerging nation of Israel. Alongside a detailed yet very readable exegesis of the text, Davies also discusses important recent trends in Pentateuchal criticism."--Jacket
